Diversity Workshops by Scott Loren Moore

Diversity Workshops by Scott Loren Moore

Scott Loren Moore conducts trainings and workshops for groups interested in learning more about identity, diversity, cultural responsiveness, and workplace inclusiveness.  He also runs workshops to raise awareness about LGBTQ issues and gender identity.

Mr. Scott Loren Moore runs these workshops for groups of all ages, from school-age children to the elderly.  He runs them in public schools and also conducts them for businesses that want to increase the cultural competency of their employees.  He also helps business staff to learn how to have productive dialogues about identity and privilege.

Moore conducts these workshops because of his love of teaching, his passion for social justice, and his quest for understanding when it comes to identity studies.  He also hopes to support and inspire those who are interested in doing outreach work or in just generating a productive dialogue. 

However, these workshops are just one of his interests.  He is also an activist, writer, and educator.

He lives in Brooklyn, New York, and also acts as a consultant with the New York City Department of Education.  Currently he is helping teachers in the district to implement the Common Core curriculum.

Mr. Moore is also a writer.  He is editor on the book, Trans Bodies, Trans Selves, which will be in bookstores in June of 2014.  It is a book that has been compared to the classic book Our Bodies, Ourselves. Mr. Moore wrote the book as a guide to the transgender community for students, guidance counselors, and professors.  It has relationship tips, as well as information about legal issues, history, and health and wellness issues.  Mr. Moore hopes that the book will give transgendered people a way to share this aspect of their lives with friends and family, and will help to give people insight into the issues and problems that transgender people face in everyday life.
